America's power plants are
racing to reduce mercury
emissions ahead of
new regulations.
Is JEA even in the race?
Power plants and other industries that emit mercury are racing to clean up their act before the EPA's Clean Air Mercury Rule goes into effect ("Mercury emitters rush to meet new U.S. rules," USA Today). For example, pollution-control technology at Dominion Resources' coal-burning Chesterfield, Virginia plant, combined with burning coal lower in mercury, will cut the emissions of mercury and other pollutants by an estimated 90%.
And what of JEA, our city-owned utility? Is JEA's highest mercury emissions in the state (according to Florida PIRG) really in our city's best interests? What are JEA's plans for lowering mercury emissions?
